While kayaking
one morning last week in northern Massachusetts I caught movement on the edge of
the lake. It was a doe walking along with a fawn. I would guess the fawn was
only a few days old. It had no balance and stumbled as it followed its mother. Wind
direction was perfect and the two were never aware I was watching with my
camera from the water.
The lake has
several loons that use it as a stop each spring before moving on to a quieter pond
for nesting. I was hoping to get a few pictures of them on this camping trip .
I missed it be a day. The day before the loons swam around feeding in the
pouring rain. It rained all day and didn’t make for a day to be out on the water.
I did see and hear them the following morning calling to each other at the
other end of the lake . Unfortunately they moved on before I could get out on
the water with my kayak.
